For all "WANTED" languages, we need some demos and pronounciation details.
For all languages included HA script, I think Myriad should put a mp3 demo on VS page (http://www.myriad-online.com/en/products/virtualsinger.htm).
I posted some demos on my MUSL (http://sylvain_machefert.myriad-users.com/index.html) page


You want a new language in VS ?
The documentation (http://www.myriad-online.com/en/scriptdocs/otherlanguages.htm) explains how to create a new language file.
If it seems soooo complicated for you. We can help you. For that :
  • Start a new topic
  • Give us a chart with pronounciation equivalent of each letters, diphtongues and triphtongues... in a "known" language : e.g. english a in about, turkish i dotless, french r not rolled...
  • Give us some demos, midi karaokes or .myr with lyrics, and if possible a mp3/youtube link where we can here the same tune sung by a real person

    Post by Simon_Furey on Feb 14th, 2012, 4:37pm
    Hello!

    I have created a SAMPA file for Catalan, which I attach. However, I am trying (and failing) to create a new language file. The trouble is I cannot find enough information about the definitions of the languages. From the examples given, I assume that we use the existing built-in languages as the basis (French, English, German, Spanish, etc.). From the examples I can see that "AFI" is "A Finnish" (but why not "AF" Italian?), so "FI" means Finnish, F (presumably) is French and apparently leaving out the language letter defaults to English (which sort?). I have looked through the work that people have done on Portuguese, Czech and Esperanto, but these use many things that I do not understand and are not described in the manual. Can you point me at a complete set of syntax definitions?

    As a simple example of a Catalan word, "rebuig" (which appropriately means "rubbish"!) you can analyse it as follows:
    r=r Spanish, as in "ruedo"
    e=schwa English, as in "the"
    b=b Spanish, as in "dibujo"
    u=u Spanish, as in "puro"
    ig=j English or dg English, as in "jump" or "badge"

    I have another question, too. Catalan vowels change depending on whether they are stressed or not. Is there any way of catering for that?

    Thanks in advance,

    Simon

    Well, I have now done quite a bit more work on Catalan, but my SAMPA efforts have not been rewarded. It seems that the existing VS facilities for SAMPA in any language are not complete. So for example if you have a trilled r (r in SAMPA) followed by a schwa vowel (@ in SAMPA) it never sounds right. Spanish and italian have SAMPA r but no @ and French and English have SAMPA @ but no r. I also find that the input of lyrics that include SAMPA is cumbersome and produces inaccurate results. For anyone else who wishes to have a try, I attach a pdf of the lyrics with embedded SAMPA and a pdf of the score (partitura). Do let me know if you have more success!

    Appel aux rois de la programmation:

    Un souci sur une partition russe (utilisation du bulgare, puisque le slavon n'existe plus dans la nouvelle version de HA)
    J'utilisais précédemment le script russe qui ne posait pas ce problème, mais phonétisait les paroles sur la ligne paroles - pas pratique pour l'édition-.

    Voir mesure 5 et 9 du fichier joint, la première noire n'est pas respectée. Un caractère à modifier dans les paroles russes ?

    HA version 9.6.4.b2
    VS version 4.0.b1
    OS 10.6.8

    Merci !

    Bonjour

    En version 9.6.3i, la dernière commercialisée, il y a des avertissements comme quoi VS ne connait pas cette langue et doit être mis à jour. Les paroles translittérées sont sur fond gris. Vous utilisez un truc pour les faire chanter ?
    Sinon vous avez essayé avec Ti au lieu de Ty ?

    Title: Re: Languages in VS [summary]
    Post by Lagaffe on Oct 12th, 2015, 8:42am
    Oui, j'ai aussi eu ce souci, résolu par un mail à nos très chers frères Guillon.
    La dernière version de VS (4.0.b1) est, d'après ce que j'ai compris, intégrée à HA 4.0.b2.
    J'ai dû effacer l'ancienne version de HA de l'ordi pour que tous les morceaux ne démarrent pas automatiquement sur cette version.
    Une syllabe non respectée, on devrait pouvoir contourner la difficulté.

    Dans le morceau mis en lien VS chante directement le russe... enfin le Bulgare. Sans modifier les paroles.
    La ligne de paroles en bleu a été crée avec une répétition en fin de morceau, répétition supprimée après l'écriture de la deuxième ligne à destination des non russophones. Elle n'est donc pas interprétée par VS.

    Il y a encore des difficultés avec le russe:
    Par exemple:
    Si je choisis slavon la syllabe ы n'est pas prononcée
    Si je choisis bulgare les mots terminant par ь sont mal prononcés (une syllabe rajoutée)

    Une retouche est cependant possible en forçant la prononciation avec le mot modifié entre crochets.

    Post by CharleyGarrett on Feb 13th, 2017, 1:45am
    This is perhaps relevant to this topic, but if I need to post it elsewhere, let me know.  I'm using HA v9.7.1c, which I think is the most recent version, and I didn't see Russian in there.  
    Is there some way to download a file that will add the Russian language to my setup?

    But my director is having our choir sing Duh Tvoy blagiy, so I've been trying to get the approximate pronunciation in there using SAMPA.  The challenge is this aspiration sound at the end of Duh, and blagiy.  

    As you can see, I'm not using their cyrillic letters.  It's sort of similar to the unvoiced velar fricative used in the German word "ich".  I looked at the fragments for German, as they seemed pretty complete.  I tried changing my singers to Germans and entering Duh[#+D+UFR+GSH] but what I heard was "choir aahs", about as if I hadn't entered any lyrics at all.  Is it not possible to enter fragments in this fashion?

    Title: Re: Languages in VS [summary]
    Post by bubu42 on Feb 13th, 2017, 3:50am
    If you heard 'aahh' only, that means that VS could not interpret the chain entered between brackets... Try getting rid of the "+" signs and through trial and error enter one letter/sign at a time. (For example [#dU], then [#dUh], etc.) There are tables of SAMPA equivalents in the manual.
    From what I heard on the Web, [#Deer] sounds like it with  British English.
    Another hint : have you tried Scripts>Virtual Singer>Other languages ?

    Bonjour,
    Question à Lagaffe: j'ai écouté votre partition "Kto_bog_velii" qui est écrite, semble-t-il, en Russe. Ma connaissance des langues étrangères étant très limitée, voulant être sûr que c'est du Russe, j'ai visionné Virtual Singer et à ma grande surprise, cela indiquait "Anglais Britannique"!
    Pourquoi, je ne comprends pas! C'est pourtant bien chanté dans la langue Russe. Merci de m'éclairer.

    Title: Re: Languages in VS [summary]
    Post by Lagaffe on Oct 23rd, 2017, 7:58am
    J'utilise depuis plusieurs années le script "langue russe", qui n'est pas parfait mais est mieux que l'utilisation du bulgare maintenant intégré à HA.
    Ce script code une phonétique anglaise. Il reste alors à taper les paroles phonétiques françaises sous les notes.

    A noter: j'ai masqué les lignes de paroles russes (sélection de toute la portée puis clic droit)
    Il est indispensable d'installer le script russe pour "effacer" la phonétisation et lire uniquement le texte russe lors de l'éditon.
    La phonétisation est inscrite entre crochets.

    Bonjour,
    Ce que je veux souligner c'est la maitrise de la mise en œuvre de HA par Lagaffe pour obtenir un résultat de bonne qualité pour les chants Russes.
    Pour me perfectionner dans la mise en œuvre de VS je vérifie toujours les chanteurs qui ont été associés à la portée lorsque l'interprétation est bonne.
    Il y a des partitions qui donnent de meilleurs résultats que d'autre en fonction du choix des chanteurs virtuels et de la langue.
    Par exemple Oliveira à de très bon choix pour ses interprétations en espagnol. J'ai l'impression que le français donne de moins bon résultats
    Depuis un certain temps VS dans HA ne met plus en inverse vidéo le chanteur ou la chanteuse qui ont été sélectionné lorsque l'on charge un fichier venant des sites Myriad.
    Je suppose vous avez choisis les chanteurs standards." Anglais britannique" dont les phonèmes n'ont pas été modifiés !
    Je dois dire que la mélodie est aussi très belle.

    Title: Re: Languages in VS [summary]
    Post by Lagaffe on Oct 23rd, 2017, 1:13pm
    La phonétisation en anglais n'a rien à voir avec les défauts constatés, il faudrait modifier dans le script le traitement du signe (mou ?) en fin de mot.
    Je ne suis pas l'auteur du script, juste utilisateur.

    Title: Re: Languages in VS [summary]
    Post by Lagaffe on Feb 5th, 2018, 9:33am
    Le mieux étant l'ennemi du bien j'en suis resté au script russe de Boris Jakovlev (2012) trouvé sur le forum, avec sa phonétisation en langue anglaise. Je rajoute ensuite en dessous des paroles russes la "bonne" phonétisation en français. Les paroles russes sont ensuite masquées sur la partition.
    Seul défaut de cette phonétisation, le signe mou (dur?) en fin de mot, qui rajoute une syllabe. Je ne sais pas modifier le script hélas.
    Voir le script en PJ

    J'ai donc l'avantage d'une écoute directe des partitions russes (malgré quelques erreurs comme les o/a), et de la lecture de la "bonne" prononciation, avec quelques codes comme pour le X noté Kh

    J'ai tenté la langue bulgare ainsi que le slavon, intégrée à HA, il y avait trop de modifications à faire sur la phonétisation, certaines lettres n'étant pas reconnues.

    Pour un non russophone comme moi je pense que ce n'est pas pire que le français prononcé par un méridional ou un chti. J'ai quitté deux chorales de chants russes parce des "spécialistes" passaient plus de temps à discuter de la couleur du a ou du o qu'à travailler les chants. Sans compter les puristes qui voulaient donner une couleur slavon aux textes.

    Nous caressons doucement l'espoir d'intégrer un jour un russophone dans notre chorale de chants liturgiques "Svaboda"...

    Perhaps this might be easier if the language data could be provided alternatively using actual IPA or X-SAMPA, both of which are "universal" and not subject to interpretation? I specify X-SAMPA rather than SAMPA as the latter must be adjusted for each language to which it is applied, whereas X-SAMPA does not. X-SAMPA and IPA are also more accurate than saying "A as in English AW in PAWN", which to me sounds the same as English O in UPON, but which may not have the same IPA representation in Standard Received Pronunciation, which may be different from American Midwest Newscaster or Australian East Coast.

    I'm gathering phonemes for Welsh. Which dialect should I go off? Should I go off southern or northern Welsh?  

    Title: Re: Languages in VS [summary]
    Post by Sylvain Machefert on May 1st, 2021, 9:51am
    I really don't know! I ignored that they were 2 dialects in Welsh!

    If they are very different and you are an expert, you can build 2 files.

    If differences are light, you choose.

    For Romanian and Greek, as I know well how to pronounce them, I tried to make the files very accurate.

    In Turkish, there is 2 way to pronounce the G with a curve on it, as I heard.
    Some pronounce it as a non rolled R, others says it longers the preceeding vowel. I only made one file, of what we can learn in books.

    For turkic languages (from Central Asia), I'm not at all an expert, I made something that may suits the needs of an occidental like us. Probably one day a Tuvan or a Kazakh will come here on the forum and say that there are very important differences I didn't notice.

    Note: I found some pronounciation bugs in the "VSiintegrated" versions of Hungarian and Turkish, while the files in the script sound OK.
    I'm mostly relying on the script files because I don't know how many bugs I can encounter again.

    So currently I am continuing the development of Chinese for MVS! I figured I would do Chinese instead of Welsh because Chinese is now becoming the most common language for vocal synthesizers. Also I know more about Chinese phonology than Welsh LMAO. I can't for the life of me figure out how to program the language so here is my current list of phonetics and my draft language file. I so far only have basic vowels and all consonants.

    ¡Bien escogido!. Hay que ir con las tendencias del mercado. Napoleon dijo: "Que tiemble el mundo cuando China despierte". Pues bien: China ya ha despertado.

    I have officially finished my list of phonetics!! There will be some new diphthongs, triphthongs and consonants that have to be made if they don't sound right. I still can't figure out the actual making of the language script so i'm gonna need help.

    Sur le blog (https://www.myriad-online.com/cgi-bin/blog/blog.pl?n=1672161141) d'hier, début d'implémentation du russe, avec un dictionnaire de prononciation.
    Ils sont à la recherche de partitions avec paroles en russe.

    Des partitions en russe il y en a plein là, écrites par Lagaffe à partir de pdf trouvés sur les sites russes. Hélas pour certains il ne s'agit que de partitions liturgiques. On y trouvera entre autres un chant bien connu en Ukrainien (qui n'est pas du russe, mais la phonétique est bien ressemblante)

    Utilisées en France pour des français l'écriture phonétique des paroles peut être discutable. Mais les paroles russes sont visibles sur la voix ténor, elles sont masquées sur les autres voix.

    Par contre si vous avez des partitions populaires, je suis preneur !

    J'ai "Pa Donou gouliaiét", en translittéré et les paroles en cyrilliques séparément.
    Les pdf ne passent pas, bien qu'inférieurs à la taille maxi annoncée.
    Si ça vous intéresse, vous me laissez une adresse mail en message privé.

    Pa  Donou  gouliaiét
    По Дону гуляет


    J'ai répondu au message privé avant de lire celui-ci.
    A priori, il n'est pas dans vos morceaux.
